SimplifyingTechnology

AUTUMN 2013

CORPORATE / GOVERNMENT / HEALTH / EDUCATION

Our purpose with CSW-IT and our SMB brand eStore is to deliver technology products to every organisation in Australia.

Since our humble beginnings in 1991, we strive to provide our customers with $1.50 worth of value for every dollar we are paid and deliver with speed and reliability. Therefore we pioneered an operating model that allows us to be competitive in the long term – and preferred by especially small to medium sized organisations.

By the late 1990’s we were recognised to be the market leader in software licensing. In 2001 and 2003 we acquired two businesses increasing our expertise in hardware. Recognising the specialised needs of larger organisations, in 2006 we separated the “SMB” (now www.estore.com.au) and the “managed accounts” team under separate sales leadership with its own brand CSW-IT.

Early 2012 we relocated to a much larger facility with 30,000 ft2 warehouse, a large showroom and 14,000 ft2 office. This enables us to develop from a capable procurement specialist of hardware and software to an organisation that has increased ability and capacity for innovative services and solutions. In this summer edition of our new corporate catalogue, we present to you an outstanding array of technology and services that we believehave the ability to assist you on the path to innovative IT.

Today we like to think of ourselves as “trend setters” because we believe that the value for Australian businesses is serving them with innovation and integrity and not by copying others. Thank you for your trust in our people. We eagerly look forward to exploringways to help your organisation deploy IT effectively, with heartand an innovative spirit.

Lorenzo CoppaFounder and CEO

Serving Australian business since 1991 – Australian owned and operated

It is with great pleasure that we present to you our Autumn Catalogue. The Summer edition was well received by our customers and in our Autumn Catalogue for 2013 we will once again aim to bring you, the most exciting technology in the market that we believe, will help you add layers of innovation to your business that you may not have seen before.

The theme of this edition is around collaboration and managing big data that has been produced by your ever expanding virtualisation environment.

On the collaboration front we want our customers to start thinking about, how advances in Unified Communications will change the way we do business, manage internal and external relationships with customers and colleagues alike and allow us to collaborate more efficiently and effectively when working on projects together. We invite you to attend a customer experience session with our BDM’s to explore how Microsoft can make this all possible today.

We hope you enjoy the technology that we present to you this Autumn quarter. I have an outstanding team of individuals ready to take your calls on any of the technology that you may wish to explore further. Please feel free to come and visit us at either of our Head Quarters in Melbourne or Sydney or explore any of these offers or testimonials on are web site www.csw-it.com.au

HP 3PAR StoreServ Informationevent

In late November last year, CSW-IT was invited to the launch of the new StoreServ 7400 from HP. Formally known as 3 PAR, HP acquired this technology in late 2009 for approx 3 billion $US.

Prior to the event we had been asked to enter a competition by HP to perform a pitch that would be judged by industry peers to win the new product and be the first HP partner in the country to own the brand new technology. I am delighted to announce that whilst competing against strong competition, CSW- IT was successful in winning the HP 3PAR StoreServ device. Therefore we now have the ability to demonstrate this technology to customers that are looking for the latest advancements in multi-tenanted, fully autonomic SANinfrastructure.

To celebrate the win and delivery of the new technology, CSW-IT hosted a dedicated HP 3PAR StoreServ event. This was led by the Sales Director for the HP storage business, Mr Steve Kelly, who wowed our audience with the capabilities that the new StoreServ technology from HP offers. For a summary of the information that was discussed at our event please follow this link:www.csw-it.com.au/hp3parstoreserv.html

For a no obligation demonstration of the technology, please contact CSW-IT on 1300 761 761 and speak with Michael Zuppa.

CSW-IT Cloud Solutions

Efficient, Scalable and On Demand:CSW-IT Cloud ServicesIn an Information Technology age that is changing faster than ever, it is important to partner with organisations that can help you make sense of what this means. At CSW-IT we pride ourselves on making sure that we help your business familiarise itself with the changes that are occurring.

In line with these market changes, we recently launched our new cloud services business. Cloud has been a buzz word in the market place for the last 2 years or so. During this time CSW-IT has looked at how and why this technology will influence the market over the next 5 years. In effect today there are three types of cloud offerings:

Public: Everything IT exists outside your organisation. You own no infrastructure locally apart from the desktop or tablet that you use to do your work. Your entire IT business is managed for you by someone else from outside your organisation. A good example of this is Google Apps or Microsoft’s Office 365. Currently this type of cloud offering accounts for less than 3% of the global cloud market and in our opinion is really

only suited to sub 50 seat organisations.

Private: Everything IT exists inside your business in a new scalable, easy to manage format where your previous silos of IT (servers, storage, networking, management and power and cooling) now speak to each other seamlessly. You are able to provision IT resources in minutes not days or months. CSW-IT recommends HP virtual systems for Private cloud. This is currently the fastest growing segment of the cloud market and is very suited towards midmarket and enterprise customers who need to maintain control of their IT environment.

Hybrid: A combination of both public and private cloud offerings. Organisations are starting to outsource some of their IT functions to the cloud as they are now getting a better ROI from doing this than keeping the functionality within their own business. The most common functionality now being outsourced in a hybrid cloud environment is SaaS (Software as a Service). CSW-IT today provides you with this capability as well as PaaS (Platform as a Service) and IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service).

Tools designed for physical backup and retrofitted for use with virtual machines (VMs) suffer from the “3C” problem. Issues with capabilities, complexity and cost force organisations to make compromises that prevent them from realising the full potential of their investments in virtualisation. What’s needed is a solution that is Built for Virtualisation™.

The 3C problem Missing CapabilitiesMinimising downtime and data loss is essential for any business, but with data growing at an alarming rate — approximately 30-50% annually — meeting recovery objectives (RPOs and RTOs) is becoming increasingly difficult for physical backup tools. Backup and recovery take too long, and with 24x7 operations shrinking backup windows, your VMs — and business — are at risk.

ComplexityDeploying, monitoring and maintaining agents on every VM is no easy task. Plus, workloads in virtual environments are highly dynamic and physical backups tools weren’t designed to keep up, so you have to constantly tune backup jobs.

CostSpending too much on your backups is easy to do, but it’s not good for your bottom line. Ever-increasing storage demands put additional strain on your IT budget, and when you consider the costs associated with backup software,maintenance, and the manpower needed to manage it all — it quickly becomes clear that you’re not getting what you’re paying for.

Veeam solves the 3C problemVeeam® Backup & Replication™ is Modern Data Protection™ that is Built for Virtualisation. It’s a powerful, easy-to-use and affordable solution that solves the 3C problem with:• Agent-free backup and recovery• Best support for VMware and Hyper-V• Virtualisation-powered data protection

To learn how Veeam does it, read on!

PowerfulWith Veeam, you no longer have to put your organisation’s critical VMs at risk because your backup software isn’t up to the task. Veeam Backup & Replication helps you meet stringent RPOs and RTOs while allowing you to do more than you ever thought possible with powerful features.

Easy-to-useIf you’re constantly deploying, monitoring and managing agents, babysitting backup jobs, and struggling with file restores, Veeam Backup & Replication is the answer you’ve been searching for.

AffordableWith Veeam, you can reduce downtime and data loss as well as the total cost of ownership of your data protection solution. Veeam is storage agnostic, so you’re free to choose what’s right for your needs and budget, and you’ll get a greater return on your investments invirtualisation with all-inclusive licensing.

Testimonial

APC and CSW-IT partner togetherto design and deliver a data centrerelocation for Oceaneering.

“We have a significant data centre in Melbourne which services all our operations in Australia including regional centres. The challenge was to relocate our data centre in Melbourne to a new facility and to house our existing production and backup platforms. Our new data centre facility was built from scratch and all the equipment was designed and specified by CSW-IT. We now have a very modern, highly efficient, very clean and controlled production and backup data centre. The process went very smoothly. The installation was on –time, on-schedule, and on-budget and there were no hidden extras”.

Ivan Prescott - IT Manager

His advanced background in infrastructure, virtualization and disaster recovery solutions can show you many ways to reduce your IT costs and complexity whilst increasing business performance and loweringmanagement, administration, power and cooling overheads, which for many organisations are well beyond former estimates. One of Justin’s key competencies is to be able to look past the solution as a single project and encompass the bigger picture from a business perspective to make sure it is a best fit not only for today but also for the long term future.

Justin has the ability to clearly articulate Hewlett Packard’s Converged Infrastructure story across the entire HP server, storage and networking portfolio and welcomes every opportunity to get down into the technical detail that many other BPSA’s avoid.
